What I especially like and will remember about Maurice Sendak is ‘Where the Wild Things Are’ and reading the book to my two children. Over and over. We can all still recite almost the whole book off by heart. Such a great story and the images were so evocative. And you can have an adventure and still be at home in time for supper. I even liked the film adaptation.

His mother called him “WILD THING!”

and Max said “I’LL EAT YOU UP!”
